Xiao Qiao is the sister of Liu Bei's wife's elder sister.

Liu Bei married Sun Shangxiang, Sun Shangxiang's eldest brother was Sun Ce, Sun Ce's wife was Da Qiao, and Da Qiao's sister was Xiao Qiao.

In China's classic novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang lied that one of the purposes of Cao Cao's going south was to find Xiao Qiao, so as to provoke Zhou Yu to agree to connect with Liu Kang Cao. In Chapter 34 of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, after Cao Cao pacified Liaodong, he was in a good mood and wanted to build a bronze sparrow terrace to entertain his old age. Cao Zhi, the youngest son, said, "If you build terraces, you must set up three.

"Bronze finch in the middle, Yulong on the left and Jinfeng on the right." More spectacular is to make two flying bridges and fly across the sky. He said that Cao Zhi and Cao Pi were building a platform. This is the origin of the establishment of Taiwan Province, which has nothing to do with Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao. After Cao Cao arrived in Jingzhou for the 42nd time, he wanted to lead millions of troops south and asked Sun Quan to "capture" Liu Bei alive.

At that time, the main battle of Sun Wu, the main peace, was raging, and it was difficult to claim. Narration 43: Under the collusion of Lu Su, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, Kong Ming is willing to follow Lu Su to Chai Sang (the old city is twenty miles southwest of Jiujiang County, Jiangxi Province) to meet Sun Quan to show his interest and strengthen Sun Quan's joint resistance to Cao Cao.

There is a mulberry tree on the fence in the southeast corner of Liu Beijia's house, which is more than 50 feet high. Seen from a distance, it looks like a car cover. People coming and going think that this tree doesn't look like a mortal thing, and this family will be very noble.

When Liu Bei was a child, he played under the tree with his family's children and pointed to the mulberry tree and said, "I must take such a feather car in the future." Liu Bei's uncle Liu Zijing said, "Don't talk nonsense, let our whole family be killed." ?

Xiping four years (175), Liu Bei was fifteen years old, and his mother asked him to go out to study. Liu Bei, together with compatriot Liu Deran and Gongsun Zan, a native of western Liaoning, worshipped the former Jiujiang satrap and Lu Zhi, a native of the same county, as his teacher. Liu Deran's father, Liu Yuanqi, often subsidizes Liu Bei and treats him and Liu Deran equally. This caused his wife Liu's dissatisfaction. Liu said: "There is such a child in our family, not an ordinary person.

"Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei made friends, Gongsun Zan is bigger than Liu Bei, and Liu Bei regards Gongsun Zan as his brother. Liu Bei doesn't like reading very much. He likes dogs and horses, music and beautiful clothes. He is seven feet five inches long, with his hands down to his knees and can see his ears.

I don't like to talk, I can be kind to servants, I can't show my emotions, I like to make friends with heroes, and local heroes are vying to be attached to Liu Bei.
